Let you and your web site visitors know how many other people are roaming around your web site at any one given moment. This is a great way to show off your site popularity for those who no longer believe in visable hit counters and to let other visitors know your site is used frequently by other people.
This script can be used as a marketing strategy to get users to keep coming back to your site (or just used for the web master to see when the high traffic times are).
Not only does it track active users, it tracks the REFERER as well. This will show where users came from if they travelled from another web site or what page they last loaded on your web site.
The active demo of this Perl User Online script can be seen to the left side of every page (under the Perl chatterbox). |
